Jakarta (Antara Bali) - President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) expressed that he would not hurry in arriving at a decision on the development of the Masela oil and gas block in Maluku province.
While opening a limited meeting to discuss the Masela block at the presidential office here on Tuesday, President Jokowi emphasized that a right decision needs to be taken for the Masela project.
"The development of the Masela block is a huge project, and therefore, the decision to be made must be true and correct," the president noted.
According to Jokowi, the wealth of natural resources of oil and gas will sooner or later run out.
Hence, on the occasion, the president urged the relevant parties to conduct detailed calculations and study, so that a right decision is taken on the fate of the Masela block.
"I know that this great project will offer economic benefits and create an immediate value add, which will have a multiplier effect on our national economy," he added. (WDY)
